The article gives the results of the 2009–2011 excavations at Shaitanskoye Ozero II, a Bronze Age cult site in the Middle Trans-Urals. The site is a shrine, the territory of which has yielded a large number of bronze and stone items of Seima-Turbino and post-Seima appearance, and Koptyakovo-type pottery. The shore area in question was the territory where the earliest metallurgists and warriors carried out their rites and cult practices.
